About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Mechanical Ocular Trauma” by Došková Hana, MD.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about mechanical ocular trauma, physical damage to the eye caused by a forceful impact or injury. This type of trauma can range from minor injuries, such as scratches or abrasions on the cornea, to more severe injuries like globe rupture or intraocular hemorrhage.

Mechanical ocular trauma can be caused by a variety of sources, including:

Blunt force trauma: This can occur from a direct blow to the eye or surrounding area, such as from a fist or a ball.
Penetrating trauma: This occurs when a foreign object enters the eye, such as a piece of metal or glass.
Blast injuries: This type of trauma occurs from high-pressure waves, such as those from explosions or fireworks.
Chemical injuries: This occurs when the eye comes into contact with a harmful chemical, such as an acid or alkali.

Symptoms of mechanical ocular trauma can include pain, redness, swelling, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and a feeling of pressure in the eye. Treatment depends on the severity of the injury and may include antibiotics, eye drops, surgery, or other medical interventions. It is important to seek immediate medical attention for any eye injury to prevent further damage and preserve vision.

General Considerations Ocular trauma constitude about 6% of all injuries, but eyes set up only 0,1% from the surface of human body. Ocular trauma can result in a wide spectrum of tissue lesions of the globe, optic nerve and adnexa, ranging from relatively superficial to vision threatening. Consequently, the socioeconomic impact of ocular trauma can hardly be overstimated. Those affected often have to face: loss of career opportunities major lifestyle changes permanent physical disfigurement
Slide 3-

Ocular Trauma Epidemiology Who is at Risk approximately 80% of injured are males The Site the workplace has been most common site domestic injuries has been increasing The Source blunt objects (rocks, fists, wood branches, baseballs. champagne corks) work-related injuries sports and recreational activities hammering on metal and nails firearms and fireworks
Slide 4-

Terminology of Ocular Trauma Without a standardized terminology of eye injury types, it is impossible to communicate between ophthalmologists. BETT – Birmingham Eye Trauma Terminology BETT satisfies all criteria for standard terminology by providing a clear definition for all injury types and placing each injury type within the framework of all comprehensive system.

BETT
Slide 6-

Terms and Definitions in BETT Eyewall Sclera and cornea. Closed Globe Injury No full-thickness wound of the eyewall. Open Globe Injury Full-thickness wound of the eyewall. Contusion No wound. The injury is due to either direct energy delivery by the object or changes in the shape of the globe. Lamellar laceration Partial-thickness wound of the eyewall. Rupture Full-thickness wound of the eyewall caused by a blunt object. Because the eye is filled with incompressible liquid, the impact results in momentary increase in intraocular pressure (IOP). The eyewall yields at its weakest point. The actual wound is produced by an „inside-out“ mechanism.
Slide 7-

Terms and Definitions in BETT Laceration Full-thickness wound of the eyewall caused by a sharp object. The wound occurs at the impact site by an „outside-in“ mechanism. Penetrating injury Entrance wound of the eyewall. If more than one wound is present, each must have been caused by a different agent. IOFB Retained foreign object. Perforating injury Entrance and „exit“ wound. Both wounds caused by the same agent.
Slide 8-

Closed GlobeContusion Etiology The injury is due to either direct energy delivery by the object or changes in the shape of the globe (flying objects, falls on the blunt objects, manual forces..).
Slide 9-

Contusion Clinical findings Swelling and haematoma of the lids Subconjunctival haemorrhage Hyphaema Iridodialysis and plegia of the pupil Secondary glaucoma
Slide 10-

Contusion Clinical findings Disorders of the lens subluxation luxation anterior (in anterior chamber) posterior (in vitreous body)
Slide 11-

Contusion Clinical findings Disorders of the lens traumatic cataract Haemorrhage in vitreous body (haemophthalmus) Retinal haemorrhage Ischemic swelling of the retina
Slide 12-

Contusion Clinical findings Retinal detachment retinal breaks and holes detachments Optic nerve atrophy
Slide 13-

Contusion Examination: Case and personal history, visual acuity, intraocular pressure measurement, slit lamp, ophthalmoscopy, ultrasound B mode, CT scan. Treatment: medical - antiglaucoma therapy, reabsorb therapy surgical - lavage of anterior chamber (bleeding without spontaneous resorbence), lens extraction (subluxation, luxation or cataract), pars plana vitrectomy (haemophthalmus, retinal detachment).
Slide 14-

Lamellar laceration Partial-thickness wound of the eyewall (conjunctiva, sclera or cornea). Etiology: Abrasion of the cornea, section and slash wound (conjunctiva, cornea, sclera) Clinical findings:
Slide 15-

Lamellar laceration Examination: Visual acuity, slit lamp, intraocular pressure (non contact tonometry), ophthalmoscopy, ultrasound. Treatment: medical - antibiotic therapy (drops and ointments), contact lens surgical – wound suture
Slide 16-

Open GlobeRupture Etiology: Full-thickness wound of the eyewall caused by a blunt object. Clinical findings: Cover rupture - prolapsus of intraocular tissue is beneath conjunctiva Uncover rupture – prolapsus is over conjunctiva
Slide 17-

Rupture Clinical findings: Low visual acuity, hypotony of the eye, bleeding in anterior chamber and vitreous body, perilimbal wound, prolapsus of intracoular tissue (iris, lens, vitreous body…). Examination: Visual acuity, slit lamp, ultrasound Treatment: Only surgical with systemic and topical antibiotics.
Slide 18-

Open GlobeLaceration – penetrating injury Etiology: One entrance wound of the eyewall (section and slash wound of conjunctiva, cornea, sclera). Clinical findings: with prolapsus of intraocular tissue without prolapsus of intraocular tissue
Slide 19-

Laceration – penetrating injury Examination: Visual acuity, slit lamp, opththalmoscopy, ultrasound, CT or x-ray (for elimination of the foreign body). Treatment: surgical – suture immediately medical - contact lens (only if the wound is small and edges of the wound are adapted) + systemic and topical antibiotics
Slide 20-

Open GlobeLaceration + IOFB IntraOcular Foreign Body is defined as intraocularly retained material. Cause: Hammering in 80%, power or machine tools in 25%, weapon-related in 20%. Terminology of IOFB: metallic or non metallic x-ray contrast or x-ray noncontrast magnetic or non magnetic
Slide 21-

IOFB Clinical findings: Depends on localization of foreign body inside the eye. Clinical features range between no visual impairment to blindness.
Slide 22-

IOFB Examination: Slit lamp, ophthalmoscopy, ultrasound, x-ray, CT scan. Detection of IOFB by x-ray method: anterior and lateral projection with prosthesis on the cornea Comberg-Baltin method = exact calculation of localization IOFB inside the eye.
Slide 23-

IOFBOcular damage Entrance Wound The IOFB must possess certain energy to perforate the eye ´s protective wall. The length of the entry wound is predictive of the risk of retinal damage: the shorter the wound, the less energy to be lost during penetration. Mechanical Intraocular Damage Little or no damage is expected if the IOFB has completely lost its kinectic energy upon entry. The primary impact may be followed by additional impaction via ricocheting. Inflammation Breach of the eyewall, intraocular haemorrhage and vitreous/lens admixture incite an inflammatory response. Chemical Implications Metallic IOFB ´s are rarely pure. Siderosis IOFB - related corrosion is caused by interaction between trivalent iron ions and proteins in the eye ´s epithelial cells. The cytotoxicity involves enzyme liberation leading to cell degeneration. The ferric iron is thought to be toxic by generating free radicals.
Slide 24-

IOFBOcular damage Siderosis Siderotic changes include the following clinical findings: Chronic open-angle glaucoma Brownish discoloration of the iris Dilated, nonreactive pupil Yellow cataract with brown deposits on the anterior capsule Pigmentary retinal degeneration withg visual field loss Visual impairment The clinical diagnosis is confirmed by characteristic ERG changes such as: Increased A wave initially Progressive reduction of the B wave subsequently
Slide 25-

IOFBOcular damage Chalcosis Copper IOFBs cause rapid, sterile endophthalmitis-like reaction including corneal/scleral melting, hypopyon (inflammatory exudation in anterior chamber) and retinal detachment. Copper tends to deposit in membranes and causes destruction by increasing lipid peroxidation. The typical clinical findings include: Green discoloration of the iris Greenish/brown – colored cataract with spokes of copper deposits Copper particles in the vitreous and copper particles on the retinal surface
Slide 26-

IOFB Treatment: All the IOFB ´s must be removed from the eye! Retained IOFB = high risk of endophthalmitis and siderosis Timing of removal: Immediately Delayed – between 5 and 10 days after injury Surgical treatment – extraction by pars plana vitrectomy with forceps or intraocular magnet Medical treatment – systemic antibiotics, topic antibiotics and corticosteroids, mydriatics.
Slide 27-

Open GlobeLaceration – perforating injury Entrance and „exit“ wound. Both wounds caused by the same agent. Etiology: Section, puncture, splash wound (f.e.wire, knife) or entrance and exit wound caused by IOFB. Specifity of perforating injury Entrance wound is smaller than exit wound (cases caused by IOFB) In most cases exit wound is technically impossible to suture (exit wound located in posterior pole)
Slide 28-

Perforating injury Clinical findings: Same as the penetrating injury Examination: Slit lamp, IOP measurement, ophthalmoscopy, ultrasound, x-ray, CT Treatment: Suture of the entrance wound (exit wound if it is technically possible), cataract extraction, pars plana vitrectomy…
